Users of Meta's AI smart glasses in Europe may be unknowingly sharing intimate video and sensitive financial information with moderators outside of the bloc, according to a report from Sweden's Svenska Dagbladet released last week. Employees in Kenya doing AI "annotation" told the journalists that they've seen people nude, using the toilet and engaging in sexual activity, along with credit card numbers and other sensitive information.

lol what kind of weird nerd is wearing smart glasses while having sex lmao

imagine you're over at some dudes house, about to get dicked down, and he comes out with nothing but these big fat blinking glasses on

[-] R00bot@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 2 weeks ago

I assume it's people making (hopefully consensual) POV videos.

[-] Luminous5481@anarchist.nexus 1 points 2 weeks ago

I know why they’re doing it. I just think it’s something only a doofus would do.

[-] zewm@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

Or someone making OF content for example.

[-] R00bot@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 2 weeks ago

Agreed 👍

[-] skrlet13@feddit.cl 1 points 2 weeks ago

Yea, it sounds more confortable than wearing just a camera tied to yourself. POV porn is popular afaik

[-] Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 weeks ago

Really? I think it's way more natural than wearing a go pro.

Bedroom is a very reasonable realm for smart glasses if they aren't connected to the internet and are used for local recording.

The really weird part is wearing them in public and either recording people without their consent or even giving the clear impression of recording people without their consent. Wearing smart glasses in a public place is just an asshole move.

I hate making out wearing glasses. That said, it is a porn category 🤷‍♂️

[-] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Glasses are like lingerie: They’re not for during, but before

Believe it or not but not all sex starts with walking into the bahtroom, closing the door, disrobing, and hopping under the covers.

And while it likely applies less to the folk with camera glasses: If your vision is poor enough, it is always a tradeoff between them getting in the way and constantly squinting at your partner.

Why do you have blankets in your bathroom

[-] Canconda@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 weeks ago

No it's the "Baht Room". Like you've been Baht. You need to be punished. *wtsh *wtsh

[-] NuXCOM_90Percent@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 weeks ago

Exactly. This obviously wasn't a brain fart + typo.

The kink shaming of some people.

[-] Luminous5481@anarchist.nexus 1 points 2 weeks ago

omg can I just make fun of techbros wearing Facebook smart glasses without everyone doing an 18-point analysis on it?

[-] Lemminary@lemmy.world 0 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

I feel your pain. Welcome to Lemmy.

[-] OldQWERTYbastard@lemmy.world 8 points 2 weeks ago

Reading this headline all I can think is "Are y'all really surprised?"

[-] decapitae@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 weeks ago

Why um, why do "smart" glasses have moderators? 🤔 Am I too far 'offline' to be asking? 😬

[-] surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

AI training. They have the tag the videos for model consumption.

[-] decapitae@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 weeks ago

Egads! AI - the new asbestos. They're putting it in everything! B🤦

[-] InternetCitizen2@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Am I too far 'offline' to be asking?

This is surveillance phobic... and I'm down for it

[-] decapitae@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 weeks ago

It may be time to train some llms to be anti llms... 🤔

[-] devolution@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Dicking down Riley Reid. Meta style.

Or being dicked down by Johnny Sins.

The glasses have potential. But anything with Zuck I don't trust. (I have to be inclusive here)

[-] Widdershins@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

All Johnny Sins needs is a GoPro and a suction cup.

[-] frongt@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 weeks ago

I've already seen plenty of POV porn where the guy has two free hands, so I'm sure it's a gopro and head strap. Which I'm sure looks ridiculously goofy for anyone else in the room.

[-] Lemminary@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

I'll say it. It Zucks.

[-] saltesc@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

I don't think I could get off if my partner was wearing these hideous things.

Or anyone else in the room for that matter.

[-] SLVRDRGN@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

I won't have sex unless my partner is holding one of these
